Joy. Happiness. Bliss.
To say I am excited would be an understatement.
I am so happy to reveal my blog redesign. I am no easy client. I am opinionated, picky
and when I have a vision in my head, it just must come to life. Ha! It has taken me six months to really figure out what I wanted before I could pick a designer.

Luckily, I found an amazing designer in Gabby. She was fast working, thorough and breathed
life into the vision in my head and the desire in my heart.

Here’s the deal. If you have followed me for a while, I
am not just a
teacher blogger. If you read this
explosion of hot mess, you know that I’ve been married for a hundred years. I’ve
adopted three children who have grown into three crazy (said with
love)
teenagers. I am still
trying to get pregnant because my body just decided (after losing 70 pounds) to
work. Clearly, I understand fertility
issues.

I am not just a teacher.
I am a wife, mother, worshiper, believer, mover-going,
best friend, chai tea drinker, want-to-be healthy person, and yes, a teacher. I think most of all, here…in this place…I am transparent.

best friend, chai tea drinker, want-to-be healthy person, and yes, a teacher. I think most of all, here…in this place…I am transparent.
I am real.
I am just ME.
So, when I decided that I needed a virtual face lift, I
wanted something that reflected ME. I am always amazed how many people visit my
blog daily. Clearly, I am not the best
teacher blogger out there. I don’t think
you come here for the best ideas (though I secretly am hoping you find
something meaningful). I think you come
here because my hot mess life
probably makes you feel normal. This
blog has never been about being the best to me or selling the most on TPT. This
blog has always been about connecting
with others. It’s personal. Personal
is not for everyone but for me, my heart is not only on my sleeve. It also
lives at the web address known as kreativeinkinder.blogspot.com.

I hope my new look doesn’t mean we won’t be
friends. I will still blog about everything that goes on at school and I never
intend to quit creating and sharing. I
am just motivated to share more than just that.
Sometimes I feel like Rose on the Titanic when she is standing at the
front of ship with her arms open wide.
There is a big world out there and I just want to experience it…and
share it with you.

I hope you will stick with me on this journey and
embrace everything I have to share with you.
This is so much cheaper than therapy (for me). Ha!

There are so many things I have wanted to blog about
but worry that it will be conflicting with my readers. So, here we go. Evolving. Growing. Loving
everything God brings my way. The good. The bad. The ugly.
